Netflix is taking on movie theaters with its first major feature film, a follow-up to 2000's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"—and it'll start streaming to Netflix subscribers the same day it lands in cinemas.

According to Deadline, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: The Green Legend" will premiere simultaneously on Netflix and in IMAX theaters on August 28, 2015. It'll likely be the first Netflix film to launch day-and-date in theaters, though the streaming service has other film deals in the works.
